We had a nice assortment of sightings this morning on my NYC Audubon Bryant Park walk (in spite of the park having ripped out much of its shrubbery and other vegetation). We were joined by Clay Taylor from Swarovski Optik toting their latest and greatest ATX modular spotted scope. Wow. If you get a chance to look through one of these puppies, do so!
Highlights included: Northern Flicker (1) Eastern Phoebe (2) Eastern Wood-Pewee (1) Blue Jay (4 - actually uncommon in this location) Tufted Titmouse (ditto) Winter Wren (1) Gray-cheeked Thrush (1) Brown Thrasher (1) Common Yellowthroat (many) Blackpoll Warbler (1) Ovenbird (2) White-throated Sparrow (many) Swamp Sparrow (1) Good Birding, Gabriel Willow NYC Audubon -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
